    Factory Reset and Red Triangle with ! and Android laying on side, what do?

    Okay so the phone is now in boot mode I think, it has the 4 dots on the screen in funky colors and this yellow line going across them Also,, I just realized, my phone's bootloader is unlocked (there's the "unlocked" lock at the bottom of the screen earlier. Wonder if that is what's causing this?

    Okay so I just saw the video, but the problem is, when you press volume up + power, it won't take you into recovery mode, it just goes straight to the Erasing dialogue. There are a few others with the same problem as me on other phones as well, and they said sometimes it takes 1-2 hours...

I think Poweramp has a trial, so you could try that out, or try Google Play Music. I always thought this...
